Reports had emerged earlier on Wednesday that a local ration depot licence holder was withholding rations from card holders who did not buy a Rs 20 national flag from the depot.

New Delhi: A ration distributor in Haryana’s Karnal district had his licence suspended on Wednesday, August 10 after he was found to be withholding rations from people who didn’t buy a Rs 20 national flag from the ration depot as well.

Reports had emerged earlier on Wednesday highlighting the fact that ration distributors in Karnal and other districts in the state were forcing people to buy tricolours, which was met with opposition from the intended beneficiaries.

On the occasion of India’s 75th year of Independence, the Union government had launched the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign to have every family to fly the national flag from their home on Independence Day, August 15.

Deputy commissioner (DC), Karnal, Anish Yadav told the Indian Express that the ration depot holder from the Hemda village in the district had been found to be forcing ration card holders to spend Rs 20 on the flag and that as soon as the matter came to the knowledge of the authorities, the depot holder’s licence was suspended “with immediate effect”. 

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, the distributor in question had said that the department inspector had given the instructions that the purchase of flags was mandatory and that he was only following orders from the government.
